By Chance, a fairly new Rock Band has now released their debut single titled “Blue Sky. The song is an old school rock tune with a modern punch and talks about the state of pollution in Rohan Solomon’s home city, New Delhi and how he wishes to see the same blue sky as he did when he was growing up. Blue Sky is a fun packed song but talks about pollution and the frustration of Delhi citizens. The band has gone an old school route and have recorded everything in the analog domain at “Engine Room Audio”, which is one of the Biggest Recording Studios in New York City.
Rohan Solomon speaking on the launch of the album says, “Blue Sky is based on the nostalgia I feel for my home town, Delhi any my memories of the pure, blue sky of my childhood. About the song technology, It was liberating and refreshing to not be dependent on virtual instruments and MIDI and use only analog equipment to record this song. I feel that’s what gives this song its depth”
Blue Sky is now available for Pre-Order on iTunes and will be released on ALL ONLINE STORES to be purchased and/or Streamed on the 12th of April.
